On the road, what is your go-to restaurant?
Chipotle!

Where is your favorite place in the world?
Finland….it was totally different experience from what I’m used to. The people are nice and ladies are hot.

What kind of music do you prefer?
Electronica, dance, house, etc – Pretty Lights, Gramatik are some of the groups I’m into.

Now, let’s move on to the more serious questions……..

In total, how long have you been racing?
About 15 years.

In those years how long have you been running for Team Orion?
I think it has been close to 6 years in total.

What is your favorite thing about running for Team Orion?
Track support from Joe Pillars is top notch. It’s nice having someone there to help you figure things out if you need it. The quality of Team Orion products is the best in the business.

Could you tell me your best race memory since joining the team?
All of the US Nationals are fun and memorable to me. It feels official and you get to see who is the fastest in the US.

What advice would you give to new up and coming drivers?
Take it serious, practice a lot. It’s a fine balance of trying too hard and burning yourself out and at the same time keeping things in perspective so you can continue to improve.

Thanks for your time Matt and good luck in the mains!
